Once again, we see the long knives sharpened against the right by employing innuendo and outright lies. This time it is against the movie "An American Carol." On Tuesday, I reported that there was some concern that ticket sales for the movie were being diverted to other movies at certain theaters across the country. But, I never said there was a "conspiracy" to do so. The filmmakers also…

On Wednesday night’s edition of The Daily Show on Comedy Central, host Jon Stewart interviewed Michelle Obama and insisted the Obama family has been "vetted about as much as a family can be vetted." Mrs. Obama insisted their Democratic primary opponents "dug through every piece of everything. If something was coming out, it would have come out." When Stewart asked if (if?) there was a "real…

On Thursday’s American Morning program on CNN, co-anchor Kiran Chetry failed to mention ACORN’s name during a news brief about the law enforcement raid on the liberal organization’s local headquarters in Las Vegas, Nevada, as part of an investigation into allegations of voter fraud.
